I really wish I could home school her. This "Common Core" stuff is total BS. I've been so angry the past two weeks I haven't dared call the school for fear of losing my temper.

NC public schooling has sucked whatever joy she had left in her main subjects. I don't know how the teachers stand it, and I don't want to pile on to their misery by going into a rage about profound idiocy of their system.
